What is carboxytherapy and how does it work?

Carboxytherapy is a revolutionary skin care method that uses carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) to achieve healthier, firmer and more youthful skin. Although we know this gas primarily as a waste product of our metabolism (when we exhale), it plays a key role in cosmetic care. It stimulates tissue regeneration and supports natural processes in our body.

How does carboxytherapy support the skin?

CO 2 , i.e. carbon dioxide, is the body's own gas, which is produced during the aforementioned metabolic processes. It has a wide range of uses in medicine, for example in surgical procedures. In recent years, it has also become significantly popular in dermatology and aesthetic medicine.

As Professor Vymazal states about carboxytherapy: "Slight acidification of tissues during CO2 application causes capillary dilation, which improves blood circulation and oxygenation, thereby starting regeneration and supporting skin health."

In carboxytherapy, CO 2 is applied using a combination of a really thick layer of gel and a cotton mask. This ensures that the production of collagen and elastin is supported. These substances are key to the strength and elasticity of the skin, and their loss is the main cause of skin aging. Thanks to increased blood circulation, carboxytherapy improves the transport of not only oxygen but also nutrients, which helps to regenerate faster and reduce signs of fatigue.

How is carboxytherapy applied at home?

While carboxytherapy is performed in aesthetic clinics using an invasive, i.e. painful method - injection, modern carboxytherapy technology allows for application using a non-invasive method, i.e. without pain, and in the comfort of your own home.

Home carboxytherapy, applied through the NUKO Carboxy Therapy facial mask, brings benefits with minimal effort and many times lower costs than in an aesthetic clinic. Simply apply a thick layer of gel to the skin, then place a cotton mask on top of this gel layer and let their connection and the release of CO 2 take effect for 30 minutes. The process is very easy and brings visible results after the first application.

A natural step towards rejuvenation

Carboxy Therapy is revolutionary not only in its results, but also in how natural it is to our body. It uses substances that our body knows very well and supports its own regenerative abilities. Whether you want to brighten your skin, firm it or minimize wrinkles, NUKO Carboxy Therapy is the right step on the way to achieving this goal.
